Maybe I need to put it on lowest settings? I am thinking Free OS or Damn Small Linux to save on hard drive space. Although I hear loading Mac OS is no problem these days and goes with any hardware. Also, for after market cooling, I heard that welding the case shut and filling it with cooking oil works really well.

Actually, considering the work that I do now, it is about right. See how old these old machines are? I tend to keep machines for a long time and the pace of hardware development has slowed way down. (Also, more eco-friendly. Producing less hardware. If you tell yourself that the energy is green, which a lot of it is in the UK as green energy has surpassed coal and is second only to nuclear.)

Just not any I'm aware of. :) I'd still say the performance increase of a SSD drive over just the sata drive is a much better investment though. Faster (SATA though) and larger drive in the old machine. This one is just to test out 64 bit operating systems before I upgrade that drive. As to applications using it, sometimes it can be massive arrays when you deal with national data and tele-commute occasionally. P.S. Anyone ever tried getting a dual boot to run with RAID? I suspect I might have to use a virtual machine when I grab some more drives.

I think that dood-dad-thingy will be okay and stop the Pee-Cee beeping all the time. I might upgrade it to a carrier pigeon, though or smoke signals.

Probably go with a hybrid at a later point. Need a lot of storage more than I need speed.

I drastically need a new comp. . Nice. I will probably do a two screen wide shot at a later point when I do a camera offset. The graphics card could be a lot better but this machine will last long term and is blistering through some algorithms at the moment.
